@traderlion 21 EMA seems to fit my style the best

Just saw an add for trading training that promised you can learn to trade in 28 days with great results after 28 days. You can learn a lot in 28 days, but it’s unrealistic to think you will be consistently profitable after 28 days. Even 28 months is not enough. To truly start being consistently profitable takes a long time and a LOT of work and dedication.

Look what landed in South Africa today! @traderlion @RichardMoglen @nickschmidt @ameetrai @rosshaber

@nickschmidt @Deepvue For the Indexes Right looks better, but for Market Breadth and Theme Tracker I am leaning towards Left.

QQQ took a bit of a pause at the trendline on lower volume. Would like to see some consolidation here. Im still cautious though and would like to see how it reacts from here. @Deepvue #DVChartChallenge

Net New Highs/Lows

[Piet Louw @PeterCLouw]

Good action since the follow-through day. Volume not through the roof yet, but participation is starting to look better. Net new highs new lows also positive for the first time since start Sept (see next post). @DeepVue #DVChartChallenge

[Piet Louw @PeterCLouw]

@monsterstocks1 I’ve also started watching it since your @traderlion course. Still very cautious.

[Piet Louw @PeterCLouw]

@monsterstocks1 @traderlion So sorry to hear. Condolences and prayers for you and your family🙏

[Piet Louw @PeterCLouw]

The Historical Analysis Masterclass with @monsterstocks1 and @traderlion is just simply incredible. Only halfway through and already learned so much🤯. Wish I had this knowledge years ago. It should be compulsory learning before opening a trading account.

My homework from the Boik Webinar 5. Still getting the hang of this but learning so much. Incredible course! @traderlion @monsterstocks1 #BoikWebinar5Challenge

[Piet Louw @PeterCLouw]

My biggest takeaway from Webinar 1 of the Historical Analysis Masterclass was that there is nothing new in the markets, neither how stocks behave nor the skills we require. We can learn so much from history.

I am passionate about my day job in project management, I love improving systems and finding effective ways to successfully deliver on projects. But there's another pursuit that captivates me – the stock market.

Over the past 10 years, I've dabbled in longer-term investments. But about 3 years ago, I began actively trading, spending my spare time sharpening my skills in this challenging yet rewarding arena (which also explains my recent silence).

Now, I'm upping my game and investing even more time in learning and improving. It's a demanding journey of mastering a new skillset and mindset, but one that I absolutely love.

So, get ready as I start to share my stock market journey – some successes, failures, and valuable insights that I've gathered along the way.

[Piet Louw @PeterCLouw]

@NotBoringBlogs @tana_inc That’s a great idea!

I’ll put it on my list of features to add.

[Piet Louw @PeterCLouw]

I am busy building a new second brain and task management system in @tana_inc

Learning a lot along the way.

What are some features you would like to see in a Personal Knowledge Management system and Task Manager?

We are entering an exciting new era with AI. But is your job as a Project Manager at risk?

As AI continues to transform various industries, many jobs might be at risk. However, Project Managers are likely to remain in demand, as their unique combination of technical and people skills will be difficult to replace.

That said, to thrive in this rapidly changing landscape, you, as a PM need to adapt to new technologies and use them to your advantage.

Embracing AI-driven tools can significantly enhance project management and ensure you stay ahead of the curve.

As an example, a tool like @tana_inc, that incorporates AI, is on the cutting edge of new developments. By integrating tools like Tana, PMs can streamline their workflow and focus on more strategic aspects of projects and build stronger connections with their team.

While AI can't replace the human touch in managing people, it can certainly support PMs in navigating the complexities of team dynamics. The key is striking the right balance between leveraging AI and maintaining genuine human connections.

I am therefore convinced that Project Managers are here to stay, but you must adapt to emerging technologies and stay informed about the latest developments in AI. This will enable you to optimize your processes, enhance team management, and ultimately ensure your own professional growth.
